Basement Dreams: Loulou of Thievery Corporation Debuts Album with New Band “Midnight Kids”
The sultry sounds of Iranian singer/songwriter Loulou (of Thievery Corporation affiliation fame) are here to stay!
Mixing progressive-rock-y harmonies with a classic lounge essence in their debut album Basement Dreams, her new band, Midnight Kids, proves to be a solid voice in their world of sophisticated urban music.
Outside of the idée fixe we’ve experienced listening to the Persian-lounge-singing pioneer’s charming songs, “Omid“–which she purred in Persian–and the irresistible French melody, “La Femme Parallel,” we have a new fixation: Midnight Kids’ “The Station,” with “Dreamers” coming in at a close second.
